A 'scorner' is someone who mocks wisdom and correction — not simply ignorant, but actively opposed to being corrected. Confronting them directly often causes more harm than good.
Memory phrase: Choose who you correct carefully.
Talk about it: Have you ever tried to tell someone they were wrong and they just laughed at you? How did that feel?
Prayer: God, help me know when to speak and when to stay quiet. Give me wisdom about the right time and the right person.
